My question is: Have you solved the problem?

Archimedes solved the problem when he was relaxed taking a bath

Then you will get it

In practice it is not so simple

Which of the two ways do you think is better?

Multiply the winners and divide the losers? I do not understand

The only way to be profitable?

How to choose the fashion market for the day?

If you have to add the losers then you have no advantage. It is simple. Your correct answers must be above 50%. If your correct answers are not above 50% then you have no advantage. Sometimes the profit is not greater than the risk either. Adding losers is playing with fire. Remember that you...

Actually when you trade, if you really have an advantage, you shouldn't add losers or double the number of contracts. It is simple. Tossing a coin has a 50/50 chance that it will come up heads or tails. In trading since the beginning of the markets there have always been trends. So let's say...

And what do you think of this? I have negotiated a contract and it has gone wrong. So in the next trade I double the bet. This I think has another debate. You are not actually adding the losers because it is a new trade, perhaps in the opposite direction. By making this new trade you still don't...

Adding in losers and doubling down after a loss has not worked for me. In my opinion, it creates a false sense of consistency.

Letting the stop jump also has another positive thing. If you are clear that you will let the stop jump then you will try to make your entry the best possible. There is no catch here. If your ticket is not good, then you know you are going to pay for it. That in the end is good for you. You...

The advantage must be because you win more times than you lose Winning by adding losers is like wanting to win a game by cheating.

Well actually I'm starting to see it now. I win every day for 2 weeks or three but finally a big losing day always comes, it's just a matter of time. That's why adding losers fools you because you end up with more positive days but in return you get a great loser day from time to time. It is...

The good thing about not adding the losers is that when the stop jumps it gives you time to think and rethink if maybe you were wrong. It is important to have good habits. If you have the bad habit of adding losers, eventually one day you get caught up in a trade that goes against you because...

Many times it works out but I don't think it's the right way. Any suggestion?

What is in your opinion the future that in general has the best price action to operate intraday? I have been testing YM but frequently the price action is erratic. Would it be better NQ?

Careful with that. That thought made me lose a lot of money. Think that what goes down can go down much more. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/lesson-learned.350441/
